The modern supermarket in the midst of Chu Se – Kampong Thom Rubber Joint Stock Company’s rubber plantations has proven to be a popular destination for both Cambodians and overseas Vietnamese, with Vietnamese fish sauces being a top seller.
Only inaugurated in February 2022, Green Mart supermarket, located amidst the vast rubber plantations of Chu Se – Kampong Thom Rubber Joint Stock Company (under Vietnam Rubber Group), has quickly become a familiar shopping destination for both Cambodian workers and overseas Vietnamese.
Newly opened in February 2022, Green Mart supermarket is located in the rubber plantation project of Chu Se – Kampong Thom Rubber Joint Stock Company in Stoung district, Kampong Thom province, Cambodia.
Songphon and his co-workers at Chu Se – Kampong Thom Rubber Joint Stock Company are regular customers of Green Mart due to its wide product selection, affordable prices, and comfortable shopping environment.
Cambodian workers frequently visit Vietnamese supermarkets.
Sarun is particularly fond of Vietnamese fermented fish sauces. While Vietnamese cuisine was originally introduced to cater to the needs of overseas Vietnamese, it has since gained significant popularity among the locals, especially Vietnamese fish sauces, soy sauce, and dried noodles like bún and phở.
The diversity of Vietnamese fermented fish sauces, soy sauce, and dried noodles like Bun and Pho has made them popular among Cambodians.
According to Ms. Tuong Hoan, the supermarket manager, more than 100 essential consumer goods, with a focus on Vietnamese and Cambodian products, are available at Green Mart. To encourage spending and streamline monthly purchases, the supermarket offers discount cards to its workforce.
Workers have made a swift transition from traditional small shops to supermarkets.
